#7 Rajasthan Royals
Rating – 4.5/10
At first look, the Rajasthan Royals squad looks heavily studded with overseas superstars. Ben Stokes, Jos Buttler, Jofra Archer, Chris Morris are some of the biggest names in world cricket. However, Archer has an injury to his elbow due to which he would miss a few games. But the bigger problem is the absence of an experienced Indian contingent.
None of the Indian players in the squad is a regular in the national side. Even the captain Sanju Samson hasn’t been able to establish himself in the Indian team. Only 4 overseas players can feature in the playing XI and 7 Indians need to play. For that very reason, Rajasthan Royals might struggle again. They had finished at the bottom of the points table in 2020. It’s going to take a monumental effort from them to finish in the top half.
